...teaching others computer skills. I like seeing the students I have worked with develop confidence in their work and I prefer to stress the ability to tie several programming concepts together rather than focusing on ultra-specific details. I think it is more important for the students I work with to have the ability to think outside the box and the confidence to approach problems in new ways that others may not have tried previously. In...

...people to learn. I think that curiosity is an important part of understanding ideas, and I think that people are most successful when they find the areas they are most curious about, or the most interested in. As a tutor, I always seek first to understand the issues that the student may be having, and then to give the most helpful tips possible to help make difficult problems into easier ones :)... I try to find the way that the student learns best, whether it's using visual tools, association techniques, memorization tricks, or any way that can help connect the concept within the student's mind. I think it's also good to be able to explain a problem in a few different ways, in case one way makes more sense to a student.

...High School Tutoring Program, where I acquired experience tutoring different types of high school students in every area of high school math and science, including: Calculus, Precalculus, Trigonometry, Geometry, Algebra I and II, Biology, and Physics. From 2010-2011, I also worked in the Monterey After School Academy, where I would meet elementary and middle school students in their classrooms after school and assist them with homework and teach them good study habits. Because I was...

...I am able to tutor in math, but soon I will be expanding that to include Computer Science, Chemistry, and Physics. My students tend to be pretty successful because I'm easy to get along with; I'm friendly and easygoing. I understand that school can be difficult and stressful - I've been there, and lived it, and been on both sides of the tutor/student relationship. I will move at your pace, and when you're having difficulty...

...and Clark College with a degree in Physics, having taken courses in physics, math and computer science. I have always found math and physics to be particularly fascinating and I love learning how mathematical concepts apply to real life situations. I have experience working with kids of all ages and I think it is very important to use a variety of teaching methods to support varying learning styles. My favorite thing about being a tutor...

Whether you're looking to solve a specific problem or get more of a background on a general topic, I can use my 20 years of experience in the software industry to help you understand in the way that works for you - I have worked with all different types of people from all different backgrounds and all different levels of technical expertise so....don't panic.... I'm looking forward to helping students solve specific problems and teaching them in a way that they understand - whether that is fast-paced and technical or "just getting through it" - we will figure out how to work through your issues together.

...degree in computer science at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. Over the summer of 2015 I will be living and tutoring in the Sacramento area. I am proficient in math, science, history, and computer science. I have been told by past parents that I am able to teach ideas and concepts their children have previously struggled with. I come equipped with a plethora of skills and tricks that I am willing to teach your...

...from understanding the elegance of Math and Science, the History of human culture, and the rich diversity of Literature. Sharing in that thrill is the most effective way to not only to teach a student about a subject, but also inspire continued interest. My task here is to open the door for students to have the ground work enabling them to explore academia, become self driven, and grow wildly successful in topics they once struggled...

...and have experience working with all ages in a number of subjects. I have the most experience working with high school and middle school students in mathematics. My other teaching experiences include tutoring in English and computer skills in an ESOL classroom for refugees, as well as private and group violin instruction for children of all ages. I believe that Math comprehension is absolutely essential to a successful education. As a tutor I focus on...
